Summary: | THE writer was privileged to listen to the speech of the Prime Minister at the opening of the 10th Session of the
Organisation of the Islamic Conference Summit in Putrajaya.
On that day, the place, the event and the man seemed to converge on one vital element: the importance of
science and technology (S&T), with specific reference to Muslims.
Putrajaya is a madeinMalaysia
example of how S&T can be put to good use as epitomised by the architecture
and wetland and gardenlike
environment.
The summit, on the other hand, is about what happens if S&T is not given its meaningful place in development.
The man, Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohammad, is an ardent advocate of S&T. |
